Summary
Making Gay History by Eric Marcus is a powerful and deeply moving chronicle of the LGBTQ+ civil rights movement, told through the personal voices of those who lived it. Drawing from over two decades of interviews, Marcus assembles a rich tapestry of firsthand accounts—activists, pioneers, and everyday heroes—who stood on the frontlines of history. From the early whispers of resistance in the 1940s to the bold cries for equality in the post-Stonewall era and beyond, this book offers a humanized, intimate, and often heart-wrenching portrait of a movement that reshaped society. This edition includes additional material that makes it especially relevant for readers seeking both historical perspective and continued inspiration in today’s ongoing fight for equal rights. For collectors and readers alike, this is a definitive and essential work that brings LGBTQ+ history vividly to life.
